    It wouldn't work now, that is for sure. The maps are perfectly balanced and suited for 4 people, more would be claustrophobic.

    It could work in the future. I could definitely see 3v3 team matches being a highly requested feature.

    It would be nice, definitely. I would actually be surprised if they haven't already coded this gametype in to the game, and are just holding off on launching with it so as not to fragment the user base.

    Personally, I want Last Man Standing. I've always preferred it to deathmatch.

    Last man standing sounds good. As long as there is an objective tho. Not just camp until one person gets bored and goes for you. Something like search and destroy. But since the maps are small it wouldnt be a problem.

    hey it is a legit strategy I just don't like it when everyone camps and there is no way to out flank them so something at the same time i don't want a bunny hop fest either

    Alright, I was reading posts from earlier in this thread after I signed off yesterday, and it seems a lot of people have questions about the way guns work in this game that were never answered. Here is what I know, for anyone still curious:

    • You can take two guns with you on to the battlefield at any one time
    • You switch weapons by tapping the gun icon on the upper right corner of the screen
    • All guns have infinite ammo, so there are no ammo power ups.
    • Guns need to be reloaded, and this reloading takes time.
    • You can force reload a gun by switching back and forth between your guns.
    • I do not believe you can pick up guns dropped by other players, but I might be wrong. If you can, then I'm positive that you can't keep these guns after the match.
    • All guns can be completely customized in terms of clip size before reload, auto-aiming quality, firing speed, strength, and a bunch of other stats.

    Like gators said, there's no way to. There would have to be a mod in every game to find them. But I don't think it's against the rules. A cheap trick maybe and an unfair advantage but teres nothing we can do about it. Except possibly have everyone team up and kill him. :p

    Camping is just a usual strategy people use... what I'll hope is there's not much camping spot inside all the maps to lower the possibility of it

    thanks kma glad we got that sorted i like games where you can camp but it is just as easy to walk up behind you and stab you in the back with a Bayo like red orchestra (all time favorite fps) everything can be solved with a bayo

    Well, the fact that it is a Deathmatch for one. When you only get graded based on your number of kills, camping isn't too useful. Also, the levels are really small and tight, so there isn't much room to camp.

    Each level incorporates a little camping, but it is done in a balanced way. One level has a giant pit containing all of the powerups in the middle of the stage, but it is surrounded by good sniper points, and a way to flood it with water. Players can choose to go for the power ups, but they might get sniped on the way in.

    Another level has an elevated sniper platform that gives a great vantage point, but little to no cover from someone sneaking up from behind.

    Thanks for the very detailed list. It was a lot of help. None of us knew first hand so a few guys were waiting for you to sign on in the hopes that you'd be able to answer them.

    I guess we can expect a lot of spray-n-prayers. >=(

    ok so i heard u can complete in-game surveys to replenish ur energy, is this tru? is there no limit to the number of surveys u can do? in essence, hypothetically would u never have to pay for the energy packs because u can just do the surveys?
